Tod Browning directed a great film from 1936 with a story about two escaped prisoners from Devils Island, one was a banker who was framed by his fellow workers and another was a scientist who was experimenting with animals and being able to make them into miniature dolls. Lionel Barrymore, (Paul Lovand) was the banker who had a daughter, Lorraine Lovard, (Maureen O'Sullivan) mother to Mia Farrow,"Rosemary's Baby". This film is filled with horror, murder and also a love story between a father and his daughter who are separated and anger and hatred are created between a great misunderstanding. Lionel Barrymore gives an outstanding performance and plays a double role in this film which will amuse you and at the same time terrify you at the horrors that are committed in this film. Great Halloween Film.
